Harvard Men at the Chicago University.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Two Harvard men have recently been appointed to professorships in the University of Chicago. William Gardner Hale graduated at the head of the class of '70, and soon after received a fellowship in philosophy here. In 1874, he was appointed tutor in Latin and two years later, he was chosen to a fellowship in classics. Since 1880 he has been professor of Latin at Cornell and in Chicago he will occupy a similar position.

J. Laurence Laughlin graduated from Harvard with distinction in 1873, and five years later he was appointed instructor in Political Economy. In 1883 he was made assistant professor, which position he held until 1887 when he resigned on account of ill health. During the last two years he has been on the board of trustees at Cornell and he leaves to take charge of the department of Political Economy in the Chicago University.
